Second Revision )
0. FOREWORD

0.1 This Indian Standard ( Part I ) ( Second Revision ) was adopted 1983, after the draft by the Indian Standards Institution 011 14 March finalized by the Joint Sectional Committee for Concrete Reinforcement had been approved by the Civil Engineering Division Council. 0.2 This standard was first published in 1961 and was revised in 1966. In the first revision, the standard was published in two parts, one covering the requirements of-stress-relieved plain wire which was a revision of the 1961 version of the standard and the other covering as-drawn The present revision has been taken up plain wire for the first time. the earlier requirements in the light ofexwith a view to modifying perience gained in using this specification by both manufacturers and users. 0.3 In this revision, modifications have been incorporated in provisions relating to chemical conrposition, tolerance on nominal diameter and requirements of relaxation and stress corrosion. Further, SI units have been adopted in specifying the physical requirements. References to related Indian Standards also have been updated. 0.4 In the formulation of this standard, due weightage has been given to international co-ordination among the standards and practices prevailina in different countries in addition to relating it to the practices in the field in this country. 0.5 For the purpose of deciding whether a particular requirement of this standard is complied with, the final value, observed or calculated, expressing the result of a test or analysis, shall be rounded off in accordThe number of significant places retained in the ance with IS : Z-1960. rounded off value should be the same as that of the specified value in this sthndard.
*Rules for rounding off numerical values ( revised ).

2.3 Elongation - Theincrease in length of a tensile test piece under stress. The elongation after fracture is conventionally expressed as a ~percentage of the original gauge length of a standard test piece. 2.4 Parcel - Any quantity and test at any one time. 2.5 Proof Stress - The of 0.2 percent of the original of finished stress which gauge length wire presented for examination

produces a residual strain ( non-proportional elongation ).

2.6 Tensile Strength - The maximum load reached in a tensile test divided by the original cross-sectional area of the gauge length portion of the test piece. 3. MANUFACTURE AND CHEMICAL COMPOSITION

3.1 The wire shall be cold drawn from the steel made by the open hearth, electric, duplex, acid bessemer, basic oxygen, or a combination of these processes. In case any other process is employed in the manufacture of steel, prior approval of the purchaser shall be obtained. 3.1.1 The ladle analysis of steel when made in accordance with relevant parts of IS : 228* shall show that the steel contains not more than 0.050 percent of sulphur and not more than 0,050 percent of phosphorus. 3.2 The bars or rods obtained from the rolling mill shall be treated if required to make it sui.table for cold drawing and thereafter the diameter of the rod or bar shall be successively decreased to the required diameter The resultant wire shall by cold drawing it through a series of dies. be subjected to the process of stretching or streightening and/or strain ageing or other suitable process to reduce creep losses and/or to relieve the concentration of stresses, and coiled.
